Passing days and Failing me


Life is forlorn
From the day you are gone
To distant worlds

Smile arrives, like once-a-year guest,
Only for some particular occasion.
Laughter, fair-weather friend, left
Without the faintest trace
Happiness now an alien…
Heard about but never really experienced.
Peace lies like ugly ruins
Of a deadly blast.
Living now is...
24*7, 365 days a year job.

The only weather I know
Is the never-ending all-pervading stillness
Of the afternoon air…
No changing hues, no dawn and dusk
No days and night
No seasons, no reasons…

Beating, breathing, blinking…
Passing days and failing me.

Hi ma'am I must say thatthough I am not poetically inclined i really really loved your poems and felt like reading them. trust me they are really great... Why don't you just generally discuss these poems with us. It would be great if others would get to know about your work!!!

Cheers
